DURHAM, N.C. -- Instate rivals Duke and Wake Forest couldnt be handling their quarterback situations more differently.The Demon Deacons went back and forth between two QBs -- even occasionally playing both at the same time -- while they wait for one to claim the job.That wasnt an issue for the Blue Devils, who handed the offense over to a redshirt freshman and turned him loose.It definitely helps to have a rhythm as a quarterback, Duke QB Daniel Jones said Tuesday.They meet this week in their Atlantic Coast Conference opener after both started their seasons with victories that were nothing alike.Wake Forest (1-0) sputtered in a 7-3 victory over Tulane, gaining just 59 total yards and three first downs in the second half and finishing with 175 yards -- fewer than every other Bowl Subdivision team that played last week.They know theyre better than that, coach Dave Clawson said. The object of the game is to win, and we won. ... But I dont think our offense left that game saying, `Hey, we did our job and were satisfied, by any means.Meanwhile, Duke (1-0) clicked right away, scoring touchdowns on seven of its first 10 possessions of a 49-6 rout of North Carolina Central of the Football Championship Subdivision.A big reason for that was Jones, who looked nothing like a redshirt freshman playing in a college game for the first time.He finished 10 of 15 for 189 yards and two touchdowns, setting the schools single-game record with a pass efficiency rating of 216.51, and added 28 yards rushing and another score.It helped that coach David Cutcliffe pulled him aside for a pregame pep talk, telling the young quarterback that he would remove anything from the game plan that Jones wasnt completely comfortable running.And Cutcliffe emphasized that -- despite a strong performance by backup Parker Boehme -- Jones will remain his No. 1 quarterback.It certainly gives me confidence to go out and play, but I have a job to do and Im expected to perform, Jones said. I still have those expectations for myself, and I want to do as good as I possibly can.Wake Forest once again will start junior John Wolford but sophomore Kendall Hinton also will play against his hometown school, with Clawson declining to give more specifics because Im not going to share with Duke how were going to do it.While he has long said he believes in both of his QBs, Clawson had hoped during the preseason that one would wrest control of the position.It hasnt happened yet. Wolford was 9 of 17 for 79 yards passing while Hinton had a team-best 24 yards rushing and scored the games only touchdown on a 1-yard keeper. At times they alternated at quarterback, with Wolford even shifting to receiver while Hinton took a snap.We went into the year with a plan, and were going to stick with the plan, Clawson said. And at a certain point, if we have to re-evaluate it, we will. But were not going to blow it up after one week.---Follow Joedy McCreary at http://twitter.com/joedyap.

Vancouver Whitecaps and Toronto FC failed to make the postseason while Montreal Impact fell at the first hurdle losing heavily to Houston Dynamo in the Eastern Conference Knockout Round. Departing is entered in the seventh race Saturday at Mountaineer, the $200,000 West Virginia Governors Cup. Departing has been to Mountaineer before, in 2013, when he won the West Virginia Derby.Tom Drury trains Departing now, but Al Stall trained him then, and one race after Departing starts on Saturday, Stall will try to win the Grade 2, $750,000 West Virginia Derby for the second time. On Friday at Saratoga, Stall will put Forevamo on a van bound for Chester, W.Va., with hopes that the colt can duplicate Departings success.Were doing the exact same everything we did with Departing, Stall said. Hes even in the same stall here Departing was in.Forevamo drew post 11 for Saturdays 1-1/8-mile race and will have Florent Geroux in the irons for the third straight race. Geroux rode him when he finished a closing second to Sharp Azteca in the Pat Day Mile at Churchill Downs and was aboard for a three-quarter-length allowance win June 25 at Churchill.We gave him a breather after the Pat Day Mile, Stall said. We decided to shut him down and try to use that non-winners-of-two condition at the end of Churchill, and boom, the race showed up just right for him. That was a good race for him. He just galloped past those horses and then kind of waited on them. Florent said, Next time I ride him, Ill make my move later.Forevamo behaved similarly in his win before the allowance race, the Jean Lafitte last fall at Delta Downs, where he swooped to the lead and then seemed to wait on his competition.Hopefully, thats something he just grows out of, said Stall.Forevamo iis by Uncle Mo.dddddddddddd The Brittlyn Stable of Evelyn and Maurice Benoit paid $320,000 for him at an April sale of 2-year-olds in training last year. Forevamo lost two maiden races before winning the Jean Lafitte and has won only twice in nine starts, but he was second to Gun Runner in the Risen Star at Fair Grounds and had a wide trip when fifth in the Louisiana Derby. His connections have long had Saturdays race marked on their calendars, and Forevamo should be set for a contending performance at a fair price.The West Virginia Derby is part of an all-stakes card with $1.65 million in purses that begins at 2 p.m. Eastern. The local derby has a scheduled post time of 5:21 and has Cupid, drawn on the rail, as the 3-1 morning-line favorite.* The first horse in the first race on the Saturday card has nothing but 1s in the column of her running lines signifying finishing position. The 4-year-old West Virginia-bred Navy Ribbon has made seven starts and won all of them. Trained by Jeff Runco, Navy Ribbon will try to run her career mark to eight races without a loss in the $100,000 Hancock County, a six-furlong dash for West Virginia-bred fillies.Navy Ribbon made her first six starts around the Charles Town bullring and was all out to win a no-conditions West Virginia-bred allowance race last month at Mountaineer. Shes poorly drawn on the rail and will have to improve on that last performance to maintain her perfect record. ' ' '
